A Friend of The Past


 

A Friend of The Past

            Once first

            Now last

            A kind you were

            Ridiculous but settled

 

            You par in light and dark

            Never sad

            But always glad

            Crazed as always

 

            More now than ever

            Beautiful in all ways  

            Given those long days

            Live with freedom

           

            Standing in aw

            Take advantage of those

            Who know not a mind of their own

            Forgive and forget

 

            A motto I regret

            For the past in my future

            You were always there

            Nothing now

 

            But a mere echo

            Great in sound

            Even when bound

            By my mind

 

            A Friend of the past, is all you are now

Hello! I'm 19 years old. I've grown a lot since a year an a half ago. I still write lots of poems just don't have much time to post them. Its over 600 but who needs count, art isn't limited by number but heart-filled effort lol. I pray everyone is doing well, thank you for those who have read my craft, liked it, commented and took time out of their day to view it. Currently I speak mainly two languages English and spanish while learning french. I'm keeping busy, GOD bless everyone and have a dazzling day. Oh that's me and my mom too in the pic if it even loads haha, feeling fresh;).
